Asus P5Q Deluxe Review

Testing:

ScienceMark tests real world performance instead of using synthetic benchmarks. For this test, we ran the benchmark suite and will use the overall score for comparison.

Higher is Better!

CineBench is useful for testing your system, CPU, and OpenGL capabilities using the software program CINEMA 4D. We will be using the default tests for this benchmark.

Higher is Better

Lower is Better

Through this series of benchmarks, the P45 based P5Q again struggles to perform better than the X48-based design. In 13 out of 35 tests run, the P45-based P5Q Deluxe equaled or performed better than the X48-based offering. In many of the benchmarks though, the scores were close enough to where the real world "feel" would not be noticed.
